The "newbie" finishes the week, Tyler Ramsay, a respected solo artist in his own right pre-BOH was the last of the current line up to join the band, some three years past after meeting them at the recording studio in North carolina where the band were working on sophomore album Cease To Begin. Somewhat fitting that he opts for a track by artist whose output includes the song Horses, that Ben Bridwell originally named his musical outfit after.
Tyler explains it was Will Oldham's 2000 release that he'd been rousing himself with in the mornings on tour, "Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, I woke up to that, Ease On Down The Road... that record is just great." before Ben jumps in enthusiastically too, "Is that the one that's got Just To See My Holly Home, wanna go for that track?" Tyler: "Yeah..."
There then followed a brief discussion between the Q interviewer and BOH on the similarly aching beauty in the song At The Break Of Day off the album, needless to say these guys (and us) are fans...
